Explanation:
- $(A)$ Endemism refers to species that are restricted to a specific geographic region,hence $(A-iii)$.
- $(B)$ Western Ghats are one of the recognized biodiversity hotspots in India,hence $(B-v)$.
- $(C)$ Sacred groves,such as the Khasi and Jaintia hills in Meghalaya,are traditional methods of in-situ conservation,hence $(C-i)$.
- $(D)$ Cryopreservation involves storing gametes or embryos at extremely low temperatures ($-196^{\circ}C$ in liquid nitrogen),which is an advanced form of ex-situ conservation,hence $(D-ii)$.
- $(E)$ Ex-situ conservation involves protecting species outside their natural habitats,such as in zoological parks and botanical gardens,hence $(E-iv)$.
